United Mine Workers' Demands,
The system us outlined nt the con
ference In regarded us Rockefeller's
answer to the demands of the United
Mine Workers made In 1913. Theso
demands led to one of the most bitter
Industrial clashes In tho history of
tho United States. Itockcfeller has
maintained that his plan Is not nn at
tack upon unionism, hut thnt It Is
"broader nnd more democratic" than
the svstem advocated by the miners'
organisation.
Tho Rockefeller plan formulated In
collaboration with operating officials
of tho Colorado I'url nnd Iron com
pany Is based upon the mediation
system now In operation. The out
line of the plan submitted to the con
ference Is divided Into four sections
